Here's one to have a play with.
it combines 100% K, alpha modes and blend modes, all of which would effect the 100% K
you can of course adjust the error message as well.

This is setup for fills, but a similar one should also be added for strokes.

If you don't get any response on here then you can contact me.
I can talk to our local resellers and see if they have any customers you could talk to.

Glad you resolved it.
However it might be time to start thinking about upgrading that version 10. It was released in 2010 so it's getting on a bit.
Windows 7 is no longer supported starting next year, and with PDF 2.0 and PDF/X-6 coming next year, it might be time to give it some thought.

You can actually go to 10 update 3
Here's a link to the older installers, you'll need your EnfocusID to access it.

There's not many options or preferences for that. It should just load the color libraries. Anything change on the system? Are you on PitStop 10 or 10 update 1. The latter supports Acrobat 10, the former does not. But it's the same license so you can upgrade if you need to. Sys Reqs are here: https:/...

We'd need to make a dedicated Action List for this.
It's not possible today

You want something like
Select Object
Select Fill Color Yellow
Select by Overprint
and
and
Log Selection

The Action List debugger will help you with this.

Just another point on this. When you assign an object to a layer in PDF, it does not move the object or change the viewing order of the file. Layers in PDF are not the same as Illustrator or Indesign. In fact they aren't really layers. In PDF they are just a way of enabling objects to be viewed or n...

As you rightly say the problem here is the sheer diversity of different spot color names that you are going to receive. The selection of the colors is possible with a regular expression, it's the placing it on a layer of the correct name that's the tricky part. I assume this is for a proof that show...

That won't work, that will create a separate PDF for each layer.

If it's a black and white scan you could also try using the color curve function to remove anything below say 5% and making it white, that's worked for me in the past

I've played with this in the past and it can work, but it's tricky. One of the issues is if there are other objects that come into play and knockout the color. Ensuring the same knockout is there when inverted can be challenging. For instance here you have the egg knocking out. So your negative must...

Then for the Trimbox vs Media Box you need 'Check if Page Box is too large' and/or 'Check for differences in Page Boxes"

Is there a Trim Box. Action List attached.

Had to check myself. We added two new options, Before and After Selected pages Screen Shot 2019-09-06 at 4.16.57 PM.png That's why it now works. You select a page based on the text string, and then the add pages can now recognize that selection. You can of course trial 2019 for 30 days if you want t...
